Samit Patel has been selected by Dambulla Hawks in the draft for the inaugural Lanka Premier League.
The Notts all-rounder is one of four overseas stars named in the Hawks’ squad for the T20 competition, which is due to run from 21 November to 13 December.
Patel will line up alongside Carlos Brathwaite, David Miller and Niroshan Dickwella, with the likes of Angelo Matthews, Andre Russell, Lasith Malinga and Chris Gayle also taking part in the tournament.
The 35-year-old, who took 11 wickets in the Outlaws’ victorious Vitality Blast campaign, is the latest Notts player to confirm an overseas assignment, after Alex Hales was picked up by Sydney Thunder for the 2020/21 BBL.
T20 skipper Dan Christian, meanwhile, will link up with Sydney Sixers ahead of Australia’s short-form competition, having made the switch from the Melbourne Renegades.
